		<description><![CDATA[sorry for the offtopic this seemed the best way to do this --

go to &lt;a href=&quot;http://URL_YOU_USE_TO_GET_TO_MT/mt/mt-blacklist.cgi&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://URL_YOU_USE_TO_GET_TO_MT/mt/mt-blacklist.cgi&lt;/a&gt; to setup your MT-blacklist plugin, more info on this at &lt;a href=&quot;http://surreally.org.&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://surreally.org.&lt;/a&gt; (also, if you&#039;re not signed up to be notified of posts there, might be a good idea). fighting scumsucking commentspammers is my new mission in life.

		<description><![CDATA[it truly is a shame that a common trait in humans is to feel the need to disguise our disabilities for fear of showing vulnerability to others.

altruistically, when i start to lose my hearing i will ask my conversationist to speak louder, or defer to written forms of communication. but the time-tested prevalence of pride in our emotional arsenal tells me that i will do no such thing.

i think it does matter, but as the saying goes, it takes a strong man to admit his weaknesses. i&#039;m not sure i&#039;m strong enough to do that.
